If you are still having trouble then you can download the firmware to a PC, copy it to a flash drive, and then install the firmware on the Boxee Box. Just following these instructions:

Re: How to update the Boxee Box software
It worked well for me. As last week, Boxee failed to connect to the Internet and network shows extremely little Wi-Fi signal strength, but neighbors give the impression to contain 3 full bars, while two Wi-Fi was showing a bar. I tried to restore factory settings, which worked well, but it will not upgrade to the latest firmware. To start downloading and reach about 90% and left alone. So I'm glad I was able to find this unofficial version for a manual update. I hope this fixes the small number of problems I've been experiencing lately.
